Black Shirt's owners are single-minded. "We're following our father's advice," they say, "which is to do one thing and do it better than anyone else." What they do is small-batch red ales, meaning red in color and fermented with ale yeast. But that leaves a lot of room for variety. There's a Colorado red ale, an American red saison, an American India red ale and an American red porter, among others. The taproom combines the neighborhood's industrial vibe with the rustic elements of a mountain town to great effect. It's welcoming and friendly with an eclectic music scene also on tap. A variety of live music and other events take place each month, including Rock & Roll bingo. As of this year, there's a new kitchen serving up pizzas, salads and more.
